Vintage 1970s leopard print Trevira (polyester) maxi skirt by Wiki.

Made in DENMARK
A bit of history….
This coat was purchased as part of the extensive wardrobe belonging to an astute woman of fashion (I call her Leopard Lady as she loved leopard print) who lived to 100 years. Her daughter informed me that up until the age of 70 she always wore heels, hats and a handbag and was recognized and admired in her local high street in the Midlands.
She was a statuesque 5 feet 7 inches (170 cm) and her items are marked between size 18 - 20. By today’s standards, the clothes often come up smaller and I therefore mention the modern day size alongside any marked size.
The collection purchased includes coats, blouses, dresses, bags, hats (Large fit) and shoes (Fit 39 / UK 6) which will be listed for sale.
The vintage size label is L.
Worn as a skirt: The fit is an XXX LONG UK14/16 (L/XL)
Worn as a maxi dress: The fit is an ankle length M / UK 12
